- Take it.

First let's find out

if you're worth trusting.

I'll call later.

The call's from Noida.

Near Delhi border.

DL registration.

Show us the papers.

I came of my own accord

to tell you.

Why would I lie now?

I have no clue

where Mahabir has taken her.

I've come from so far

to tell you everything.

I'll tell you everything.

Hiding information

is out of the question.

Just ask!

They left this place a week ago.

They could be anywhere.

I'll tell you when to hand over

the ransom money.

Just relax. And wait.

I'll let you know.

He called from Calcutta.

"The girl dances

and ensnares me.."

Move the barricade.

Let them pass.

Check the papers.

- Stop..

Get back.

- You have already checked..

They have nabbed a person

there. - In Shyambazaar..

Move from here.

Come out.

- Check the car.

Where are you coming from?

- Next state.

Let a few pass.

- Show the papers.

God knows where she is.

What they're doing to her.

"A bite of sweet betel quid."

"A cotton Lahori suit."

"In high spirits,

the firefly soars.."

"The Lord is your gardener,

O green forest."

"Never mind the cuss words,

He watches your every step."

"Ignore what the world thinks."

"Take the name of God.

Take the name of Ali.."

"Take the name of God.

Take the name of Ali.."

"She has taken the path to Him."

"She has taken the path to Him."

"Ali.."

"Travelling on and on.."

"Ali.. On your path,

she walks. Ali.."

"On your path, she walks."

"Firefly, free spirit,

firecracker."

"Flying about intoxicated"

"all around. Free spirit,

firecracker."

"Flying about intoxicated"

"all around."

"The Lord is your gardener,

O green forest."

"Never mind the cuss words,

He watches your every step."

"Throwing caution to the wind,

I am in Your hands."

"Throwing caution to the wind,

I am in Your hands."

"Throwing caution to the wind,

I am in Your hands."

"Throwing caution to the wind,

I am in Your hands."

"God's chosen one,

His most dear one.."

"God will take away

the suffering He inflicts."

"Take His name and dance.."

"Ali.. Take His name

and dance.."

"Ali.."

"Take the name of God.

"Take the name of God.

"Growing wild like the fig tree,

worshipped by all."

"No one plants her.

No one can cage her."

"On this endless journey,

like rainwater falling"

"soiled if she

touches the ground."

"Just chant the name of Lord.

Give yourself up to Him."

"Just chant the name of Lord.

Wow!

Great!

There are such

unique places in this country.

Tell me.

Why are the rich fascinated

by dirty, run-down, old ruins?

Step to the side.

Step forward.

Hold this.

Hold it straight. We need

to show the date.

What language is it?

- Bengali.

So that they think

we're in Bengal. Smart!

You've been abducted.

Look upset.

Who'd pay ransom for you?

Stop laughing.

Be serious.

How can I be serious,

looking at you?

Aadoo!

Okay. I'll turn around.

Higher.

This place is good.

The market is nearby.

Better buy her clothes.

She'll stand out like this.

Everything will be okay.

But I'd like to know..

If anything goes wrong..

The ransom, the calls.

By the way, are we still..

Sticking to our plan?

Why?

Just asking.

We're selling the girl

to a brothel.

Okay.

- Don't get fond of her.

Nothing like that.

Is she the only respectable one?

What about the poor girls?

Women are taken away at night.

For some big shot

from the city.

A woman is required tonight.

And who takes her to him?

Let it be..

- Her own husband!

Her man.

He sits outside while his wife

is inside with the big shot.

Then the door opens

and he brings his wife

back home.

And he takes out all his

frustrations on the woman.

Because the rich can exploit us

whenever they feel like.

To hell with them!

To hell with them!

Drop it.

He's not in the mood.

I'll fix his mood.

Are you mad?

Never do that.

Got it.

What is it?

You asked him to buy

clothes for me.

Aadoo told me.

Stop acting. I look very nice.

What is this song?

Well?

- Why do you want to know?

I want to hear the song.

That's it.

Go now.

Mahabir Bhaati.

Where did you hear it?

- Why should I tell you?

Now, I have to know.

What song was that?

It's not a song.

Then?

So where did you hear it?

My mother used to sing it.

Really?

Wow!

For you?

Tell me. Please! - Yes,

she used to sing it for me.

When she went to work,

I went with her.

I'd cry, so she'd sing. Okay?

You used to cry!

Does your mother live with you?

Enough. Go inside!

Stand up!

You see,

I don't feel like going.

Too smart!

- Right!

I'm not scared anymore.

Don't get offended, but..

I find you really cute now.

So, what made you cry?

Tell me.

Who troubled the little one?

Sorry! I won't ask again.

Listen..

"Sleep now."

"Do not cry."

Look down!

Where's your mind?

You burnt the food.

"My adored son, sleep now."

"Your dreams will carry you"

"to a field

of sweet delights."

"The parrot on the tree"

"tells you"

"to smile."

"The swan wants

to befriend you."

"My adored son."

"My adored son."

"The night is as dark as coal."

"Your eyes fill with sleep."

"With a blanket of stars

covering you."

"Sleep a sweet sleep."

"The night is as dark as coal."

"Your eyes fill with sleep."

"With a blanket of stars

covering you."

"Sleep a sweet sleep."

"If you toss and turn"

"the mynah bird

will steal you away."

"A falling star,

a little star."

"A falling star."

"It asks after you."

"Why don't you sleep?

Why do you cry?"

"Why did you get so lost?"

"What upset you?

Who upset you?"

"What did you leave behind

in the land you came from?"

Your mother..

What do you call her?

Mom.

So..

Is she well?

I mean..

Is she all right?

You have to promise me,

Mahabir.

Once we're done with all this

you'll see her.

Where is she?

In the village.

So, you'll go to the village

and see her.

Okay?

Promise?

"Tell me what is in your heart."

"Share your thoughts with me."

"The parrot on the tree"

"tells you"

"to smile."

"The swan wants

to befriend you."

"Sleep now, my adored son."

"Sleep now, my adored son."

"Sleep now, my adored son."

"Sleep now, my adored son."

It's in English, right?

- Totally in English, sir.

This one.

"Let me dominate you.."

"Dominate your body.

Terminate this naughty."

"Let me dominate your..

Dominate your body."

"Terminate this naughty."

"I am a hot Tamale.

Red Chille me, finale."

"Fire like Bob Marley.
